Stilton Reviews

Blue Stilton is undoubtedly one of England's best ever "inventions", it's one of the ultimate cheeses and has a strong taste that you can savour. The story of this cheese is quite interesting, it dates back to the mid 16th century when an inn owner from Stilton in Cambridgeshire visited a farm near Melton Mowbray where he came into ...

My Mother told me that before the 1st World War she saw her father take the 'lid' off the Stilton cheese (this was the sliced off top of the round of Stilton). Port had been added to the cheese to preserve it, but under the lid there were pure white maggots crawling around. She watched her father just scoop them up with the Stilton cheese scoop and swallow them with a glass of port.

I bought my Stilton from my Tesco metro and much to my pleasant surprise it was only £1.24 for a rather large 228g block. I went for the English blue Stilton. A classic for the cheese board. THE PACKAGE The cheese came in a triangular plastic container with the Tesco logo stamped on it. Its cover is packed with useful ...

Blue Stilton…The king of British cheeses! There’s nothing like a soft, smelly slab of stilton on a bit of crusty bread. I used to abhor blue cheese, but my palate has become more refined over the years and I’m now an advocate of the ‘smellier the better’ approach! Stilton is one of my favourite cheeses, just edging ...

For the purposes of this opinion I should be grateful if you would pop a CD into your player of traditional Greek bazouki players. Those of you who are without benefit of such an album should hum along while you read or ask a member of the family or next-door neighbour to sing to you for the duration. The reason for this strange ...

Stilton Blue Vein Cheese is the King of Cheeses. This is MY favourite cheese. To my taste buds it is the most superior of cheeses. This cheese should be on every cheese board, preferably served at about 20 degrees centigrade. I prefer it accompanied by quality crackers or perhaps traditional plum loaf and by any wine, (just experiment). ...

Fantastic - one of my comfort foods! - Advantages: Gorgeous flavour, Great texture, Versatile ingredient - Disadvantages: Can be pricey, Stinks!

What makes a cheese great, it's not simply how good it tastes but rather like a fine wine it's the subtlety and depth of flavour that reflects the amount of care and time that has been spent in making it. In this regard Stilton fit the bill. >>>>A BRIEF HISTORY<<<< Stilton was first produced in the 18th ...

It was a hot Summer: July 1976: A drought had been officially declared, and although we needed the holiday visitors here in West Dorset, in order to boost the local businesses and maintain employment, they were using our precious water supplies, and there was a sense of siege in the area. This was the same year as the famous Cod Wars in the North ...

I'll start by apologising because cheese is my addiction and like any other addiction it can make you behave in a manner totally out of your control. Some days are better than others, some days I can control it, but some days the cravings are too much and my behaviour becomes erratic until there's no helping it and I overdose, ...

All of our family enjoy cheese and so if we buy any unusual cheeses they are normally eaten up pretty quick. By the time I get to the fridge to enjoy a piece of cheese and some fresh crusty bread there is normally only some mild cheddar left behind. But if I want to ensure that there will be a piece of decent cheese for me to eat then all ...

You all know I like chocolate, don’t you? You’ve not missed that particular salient fact about me? Thought not. I do like chocolate. I love it. But I also love cheese. As I love all chocolate, just about, so do I love all cheese, just about. And, as with chocolate, with cheese I have my favourites. Stilton is one of them. What a ...

this cheese is a must as its so versatil you can cook with it as a topping for potato based pies lov - Advantages: lovely texture - Disadvantages: fattening

The only smelly thing to make your mouth water. The best cheese by far is Blue Stilton. Ok maybe ‘by far’ is a bit of an exaggeration. A close second is Danish Blue. But Blue Stilton you see takes the biscuit, it’s smoother and creamier than you would expect. As a boy I used to hate the smell of the Stilton my uncle ...

Stilton has to be considered the King of Cheeses. Its very name instils majesty and greatness, and it more than other cheese is considered superior. Or have I just gone mad, I mean it’s only a cheese, isn't it? Stilton is one of those STRONG cheeses, one of the strongest I have found. It is slightly off white and quite ...

Stilton, for those of you haven't heard of this cheese I will give you a brief description. Not everyone will agree some will. Stilton is a cheese made in England which is left over for 3 years to be mature. Not mature sensible, mature as in ready to eat. It is quite easy to spot for it's is white and has veins. It's taste is ...

I am sure that everyone is aware of what stilton looks like and more importantly how stilton ‘smells’! I always used to call it sock cheese when I was younger, as it really didn’t taste good to me and indeed I thought it smelt of old socks! Not really a paragraph that inspires confidence in the greatest British cheese, ...
